Hatch’s Life of Mine Services team provides concept, prefeasibility and feasibility studies, operations support, mine rehabilitation design, due diligence and strategic mine planning.
We use the front end loading (FEL) approach to advance projects through the study and gate review stages to ensure that the best option is selected before major investment decisions are made.
The Mining and Mineral Processing (M&MP) group assists clients with management, maintenance and performance improvement.
Hatch offers mine rehabilitation services. Multidisciplined teams combine a range of skills including terrain analysis, overburden characterization, surface water studies and permitting.
Hatch is frequently retained by financial institutions for due diligence reviews, technical audits and engineering reviews of open cut and underground mines. Similar reviews are carried out on behalf of client companies aimed at de-bottlenecking operational problems.
Hatch offers ongoing mine planning. Working with the client throughout the process ensures the development, implementation and delivery of a safe, efficient and sustainable mine plan.
